PREHISTORIC MAN.
Mr. Thomas Wilson Tells the Story o

Mans Antiquity i'm Europe.

subject OF the lecture at the National Museum
last evening. Mr.. Thomas Wilson, who has de-
posted in the museum large collection OF relics
OF prehistoric man, secured by him In France, was
the lecturer. His remarks were illustrated by
series Of fine views thrown upon q screen by
lantern. The lecture hall was crowded, and Mr..
Wilson succeeded in deeply interesting his audience
in the story Of the OF prehistoric times as it
has been slowly unravelled by the discoveries OF
psychologists. He said, however, that In the time
allotted him he could give no more than the table
Of contents OF the history. He gave In narrative
form brief account OF the discoveries and theories
of the anthropologists OF France, and Of others
who have been unearthing the record buried in
the ancient caves or sand-drifts Of France or hid
den In the old lake beds OF Switzerland. He gave
in order an account OF pa8Olithtc man, the short,
Strong llmbed, big lunged man, with . long but
narrow head, whose bones are found with those OF
the cave-bear and the hyena. He showed

gone north and east crossing Siberia crossing the

this theory was strengthened by the evidence Of
the collections OF Eskimo implements arranged by
Lieut. Bolles in the National Museum. The SINH

He gave interesting estimates by French anthro-
biologists that the period covered by the two
epochs the palpolithic and the neolthic, was from
$50 600 to 25O, 900 years. Mr.. Wilson stated that

death the property OF the museum.

MIR. TCLLocKs SUBURBAN HOME
THE POTOMAC FISHERIES.
Shores that will be Operated this
SeaSOn-Thc Need of Laws.

AS usual at this season, there Is considerable
activity at the fishing shores along the Potomac.
The shores now operated are mach fewer in
number than they were only a few years ago, as
one by one the different shores have become un-
profitable and been abandoned. The first shore
on the Virginia side to be operated this year Is
Ferry Landing, once noted fishery. It will be
operated the present season by its owner VIM.
Neitzey, OF this city, who has ished it for a num-
Der OF years. The shore requires 1000 fathoms
OF net ana Is hauled oy steam-power and requires
The second fishery on the same side is Stony
Point, operated by the same party. This shore re-
quireS ], 500 fathOmS OF net, is hauled by steam
power, and requires about Is men.
The next is known as the Clifton Fishery, and is
fathoms Of net, hauled by horse power Fat attached
to capstans This landing employs so men.
Then come the Gums, which Will be fished this
dria, Va. This shore requires LOCO fathoms OF

Ewing, OF Hartford County, Md. This shore uses
1000 tathoms Of net, hauled by horsepower, and
about so miles down the Potomac. The river be- e.
low this point to the mouth is fished with pound
and gill nets only.
celebrated fishery known as Chapmans Point.
This property has changed hands lately, and it is
doubtful II the shore will be 1ished this coming
season, as fishing with haul Seines Is uncertain
and attended with much expense. Among the
shores on the Virginia side that viii not be ished
this season are the once celebrated Shad shore
known as the White House, and FreestOne Point,
another shore once famous, which rented as late
as 1885 for 81 900, but has been abandoned on ac-
count OF the scarcity OF fish. The same state OF
affairs exists on the Maryland side OF the river
from the same cause. There are many valuable
shores on both sides which few years ago
brought large sums annually that are now aban-
doned. On the Maryland side, under this head,
come Moxley Bryant's, Greenway, Pamonkey and
Chapman's Point, Gut Landing, Stump Neck,
Budds Ferry, and many others OF less note.
"On both the Virginia and Maryland sides there
are many very valuable fisheries that have been
abandoned" said an old Potomac fisherman to q
STAR reporter, .'all owing, think, to excessive
fishing, fishing in season and fishing out Of sea-
son, below the Potomac On the Chesapeake Bay.
There have been many good protective oyster
laws passed by which the oysters have increased
in numbers, whilst the fish are left unprotected,
with the results OF causing the abandonment OF
many fishing shores, Notwithstanding the good

The song of Homer cometh. grave ana stern,
With It'd ings from the worlds fresh, healthy prime
Tidings which our VOTE, wearied age concern.

The voice of Homer sings the song divine.
Which tells of god like tolls, OF heroes tears,
And Of the punishment Of Pram's line.

For us the foe in grim array Is set

For We too like the heroes long ago.

Fierce Is the conflict, loud the trumpets blow.
Aud the waves roar and rage increasingly.
Still must we wander DER the stormy main:
Twixt rocks and whirlpools dead passage make:
Stu must the Sirens sing 70 N in VAIN.
Still from the tolls Of Circe must we break.

A Lively Legislative Scene.

PERSONAL SQUABBLE IN THE ILLINOIS HOUSE.
There was a lively row In the Illinois house
Thursday, In the course OF debate on the Merritt
conspiracy bill, which makes two or more persons
conspirtng to do an unlawful act responsible for
all the crimes growing out of the act. An
amendment to certain sections OF the law was
proposed by Baily, the labor member from East
st. Louis and supported by Dixon. another labor
member from Chicago. In the course OF some re-
marks directed at Merritt, the author OF the bill
Dixon said that any man who had knelt40wn to
woman and begged for his life on account OF q
speech he had made was coward. MI. Merritt at
this point shouted:
s'You, or any other man who says did that, is q
liar"
Mr.. Dixon secured from Mr.. Rohrback, and sent
up to the clerks desk, letter printed in the Chi
cago Labor Enquirer or March 10 charging that
Mr. Merritt was knight Of the Golden Circle, and
had made speech praiSing the massacre At Fort
Pillow, and that the wife OF captain killed there
had forced him to recant at the point OF pistol.
During the reading of the letter half OF the mem.
bers Were on their feet, and the greatest excite
ment prevailed. tWhenQ quiet was restored, Mr.. Aer.
rift said: 1.-THE man who wrote that Is the most
internal liar that God Almighty ever put breath
into There Is not one word OF truth In IT. and any
man who repeats 1t to me must be responsible.
No man dare come within two feet OF me and say
1t is true"
The amendment was killed, and the bin, which
seeks to make much more stringent the existing
laws furnishing conspiracy, and Is an 0utgr0wth OF
the discussion OF conspiracy In the course Of the
anarchist trials, was pushed on TO third reading
